  • Abstract:  The iTwin Connect solution is a natural extension of the iTwin File Access we reviewed before. While the iTwin File Access is just that, the iTwin Connect goes beyond by offering remote desktop access without port forwarding, shared folder access and V...

  • Abstract:  Some times you want to leave work behind, or sort of. You don't want to carry a laptop with you, but still want access to some files while away. Or your company's policies might prevent you from synchronising files to external, cloud storage. Or you mi...

  • Powerful AES-256 bit encryption, no data stored on device; no subscription fees; relatively simple plug and play; attractive, compact design; replacement dongles available if lost; 2 year limited warranty.
  • Limited to two computers; both ends need to be switched on and online; hardly environmentally friendly; expensive USB device can easily be mislaid or lost; transfers limited by ISP's bandwidth restrictions; will be overkill for many causal computer users; no Linux support.
  • At around £90, iTwin isn't the cheapest way of sharing content over the internet and will likely seem over the top for anyone who occasionally needs to share files between computers or users. That said, business users and those with sensitive data should...

  • A beautifully made product which lets you securely share files across computers but at a smidge under £100 it's an expensive solution, made worse by the fact that it's the equivalent of £64 in the US. A great idea then, let down by the price and a few sof...

  • Secure, Well-made
  • A bit expensive, Alternative methods are plentiful
  • The iTwin does what it sets out to do well, connecting two PCs over the web securely, irrespective of their position in the real, living, breathing world. However, the fairly high price and functional limitations of the technology - primarily having to ha...
